Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
The thing you have to remember about this song is that Dave improvs a lot so nothing
written down is going to be completely right. At the beginning, he hammers from Amadd9
to Am (|-02200| to |-02210|) and does so throughout the entire song. Listen to whole
song to figure out when else. The chord placement is going to be a little strange, but
I tried to copy where the chords actually change (or are emphasized). And sometimes,
an E7 sounds better, but it's up to you.
